Our 1970 Commer 2500 Light Bus.

Touring Australia in a Classic Commer Van.

After nearly two years of weekend work the restoration of our Commer is finally finished and she has now undergone a transformation from Mini Bus to Camper to accommodate the three of us on our upcoming tour of Australia in this classic vehicle.  The Camper conversion is designed as an option so the van can be easily returned to a Bus when not required as a camper.  This was important as we wish to be able to maintain the vehicle in its original form as much as possible.
I am Paul, my wife is Amanda and together with our 3 year old daughter.  we will depart from Nannup in the southwest of Western Australia in late December 2012 and "slowly" make our way towards the east coast of Australia.
We have sold our home and have no immediate plans for the future, other than to enjoy this beautiful country of ours with our daughter prior to the beginning of her school years.
Driving this old bus will undoubtedly ensure that we do this at a leisurely pace.  Follow us through our blog on this adventure and find out how the old Commer holds up to the harsh Australian conditions,  should you see us down the track, remember to give us a wave or say G'day.
